Joel Little - Bravado lyrics

[Produced by Joel Little] [Verse 1] All my life, I've been fighting a war I can't talk to you or your friends It's not only you My heart jumps around when I'm alluded to This will not do Cause I was raised up to be admired, to be noticed But when you're withdrawn, it's the closest thing to a**ault when all eyes are on you This will not do [Beat Break] [Verse 2] I'm faking glory Lick my lips, toss my hair And turn the smile on And the story's brand new But I can take it from here I'll find my own bravado [Chorus] It's a switch flipped, it's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipse And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this It's in your bloodstream, a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes It's a marathon run or a mountain you scaled without thinking of size I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down To trip me up and laugh at me but I learned not to want the quiet of a room with no one around to find me out I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go oh [Beat Break] [Chorus] It's a switch flipped, it's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipse And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this It's in your bloodstream, a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes It's a marathon run or a mountain you scaled without thinking of size I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down To trip me up and laugh at me but I learned not to want the quiet of a room with no one around to find me out I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go oh
